rebase: do not print lots of usage hints after an obvious error message
When a non-existent branch was specified to be rebased, the complete
usage information is printed after the error message that carries the
relevant piece of information:
$ git rebase master topci
fatal: no such branch: topci
usage: git rebase [-i] [options] [--onto <newbase>] [<upstream>] [<branch>]
or: git rebase [-i] [options] --onto <newbase> --root [<branch>]
or: git-rebase [-i] --continue | --abort | --skip
Available options are
[30 lines of usage stripped]
The error message was introduced recently by
4ac5356c (rebase: give a
better error message for bogus branch, 2011-01-27), and the result was
acceptable because the usage text was just two lines. But
45e2acf3
(rebase: define options in OPTIONS_SPEC, 2011-02-28) made things worse
because the usage text is now 35 lines.
Just drop the usage information because it does not add value to the
error message.
